Resumen de Getting from Here to There.
This article highlights the work of Manjunath N. Swamy at Harvard Medical School who has devised a way to get a drug into brain cells. The brain has a natural barrier called the blood-brain barrier that makes it hard to get medications to certain cells. Some viruses can penetrate the blood-brain barrier and Swamy exploited that by disguising a drug with a small protein found in the rabies virus. Once inside the brain, the drug entered nerve cells like a virus and delivered the medication.
